San Bernardino County hosts the military's most cherished clubhouse, Ft. Irwin, and several other bases, active and closed. The county population is rich in military denizens, their derelicts, offspring, misfits and buffs. With the consequent prevalence of the classic sociopathy found in these people, predation, exploitation, corruption and virtual tyranny have spread throughout our courts, law enforcement and government. Discuss the disgraceful prison and military industrial complexes here.

Democratic Congressional Candidate Tim Prince Will Not Get Debate With 30-Year Incumbent Jerry Lewis
The Tim Prince for Congress campaign says they have delivered official proposals to Republican incumbent Congressman Jerry Lewis, our representative for the 41st District, to participate in a debate at the University of Redlands, prior to the November 4 election. Campaign representatives for Prince, a San Bernardino attorney, say that invitations were sent to Congressman Lewis on October 20, delivered in person to his Redlands office and mailed to his Washington DC office—these letters outlined three different dates and three different times, from which the incumbent could choose, and indicated that Gloria Anderson, President of the local chapter of the League of Women Voters, would organize the debate. Per Congressman Lewis's Redlands office, there is no debate planned between the two. Lewis's Chief of Staff Arlene Willis tells KBHR that the two candidates had discussed participating in a debate while at a San Bernardino Chamber of Commerce breakfast, though nothing definitive was planned. Chief of Staff Willis further tells us, “Congressman Lewis did not recall receiving the invite.” Now, she adds, given the limited timeframe before the November 4 election, Congressman Lewis's schedule will not allow for a debate with Democratic candidate Tim Prince prior to voting day.
We need change! Jerry Lewis thinks he is entitled to another term without even appearing in front of his constituents. His staff won't answer the Justice Department's subpoenas, and Jerry has spent $1 million on criminal lawyers in an attempt to stall his investigation. He's afraid of us, he is afraid of the law and he is afraid of Prince.
